Google+ Users, do you miss Facebook? Install the Google+Facebook extension

AJ — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 19:59:13 +0000

Simply put, the Google+Facebook browser extension allows you to see your Facebook stream inside Google+ and update your status. Connect to Facebook and get all the updates on your new Google+ Facebook tab.

Note: The Google+Facebook extension is currently supporting Chrome and Firefox only. Due to https:// security level issues with Internet Explorer, Google+Facebook does not support IE. They are working on a fix for that.

See it in action below:

How to export all your data out of Facebook

AJ — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 00:52:57 +0000

I’m sure most of you have seen Google Takeout already. Google Takeout lets you download an archive of your data from Buzz, Contacts and Circles, Picasa Web Albums, Profile and Google+ Stream.

Then you might be wondering if this is possible to do with Facebook too. Well, some of my friends says it’s hard to export all your data out of Facebook. But I think it’s a matter of knowing where to click and go. So here’s a step-by-step post how:

1) Login to Facebook (https://www.facebook.com)
2) Click Account >> Account Settings (https://www.facebook.com/editaccount.php)
3) Scroll down and find “Download Your Information”
4) Click the “learn more” link (below)

5) Enter your Facebook password
6) You should see something like this (below) >> Download!

That’s it. Pretty easy huh? Share this to your friends too.

Cleaner FriendFeed v10: Cleaner Theme and Skin for Friendfeed

AJ — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 19:21:27 +0000

This version makes the previous Cleaner FriendFeed a lot cleaner! Cleaner FriendFeed focuses on the user’s content more than the web application itself, removing noise and clutter and making the user’s feed more focused for the viewer.

Some quick notes: This userstyle brings the FriendFeed conversation to another level by instantly letting you know…

1) Your own comment (Powder Blue color)
2) Your friends comments (Light Yellow color)
3) Your non-friends comments (Normal FriendFeed Comment Color)
4) Likes (Light Pink)

Here are the before and after screenshots

(Before)

(After)

To use this, simply install Stylish on your Firefox or Stylish for Chrome.
